Quote
  "True change management in healthcare is dependent on patient and provider education. Although change always brings resistance, the pace of change and adoption slows when people who benefit are not considered first and foremost. So without education, the time and dollars invested in innovation are at risk. In order for healthcare innovations to be effective, we need to influence a varied population of consumers to first understand why a change is necessary and beneficial, and then feel empowered and confident enough with the technology to make meaningful change."

- Rohan Kulkarni, VP Healthcare Strategy & Portfolio, Xerox, Washington D.C.
 
Factoid
  "Polls show that only 10% of the U.S. population believes that pharmaceutical companies are generally honest and trustworthy, down from 12% in 2012. About 75% believe companies prioritize profits over people, up from 70% in 2008."

Excerpted from: Healthcare Innovation News, Volume 3, Issue 17, September 2016, "Global Standard Improves Clinical Trial Practices - The Good Pharma Scorecard (GPS)" by Jennifer Miller, Ph.D.
